Venue Management
During Festival

The Venue Management team runs each of our venues at the Festival, ensuring that every performance goes smoothly. This includes front of house (e.g. venue capacity, patron safety) and back of house (e.g. performer point of contact, keeping venue to time).
You’ll be working closely with the Venue Management Coordinator, our sound technicians, MCs, and artists to manage time and resources in each venue. The Venue Management team is also responsible for ensuring Work Health & Safety requirements are met.

Who

This team needs individuals with good interpersonal skills, and a strong sense of organisation and time management. Previous experience in this field will be highly regarded. Any applicants studying in this field are encouraged to apply.

When

The Venue Management team operates during the Festival, from the 2nd to 6th of April. The operational hours for Venue Management varies depending on the venue, but are generally between 8am-midnight. Volunteers for this team are required to complete 20 hours of work.

How

All volunteers are required to complete online induction and training that will be available prior to the festival dates. Face-to-face training requirements will be advised by your Team Coordinator once you are confirmed as part of a team
